In 2013, he had his first main television role on the sketch-comedy series Incredible Crew, which aired on Cartoon Network before being canceled after one season. He then gained recognition with his portrayal of Malcolm in the 2015 film Dope, which premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. IndieWire included Moore on its list of "The 12 Major Breakouts of the 2015 Sundance Film Festival" for his performance in the movie.

## Personal life

In December 2024, Moore posted a year-old video of himself and actress Laura Harrier together. Harrier publicly denounced this, as she was engaged, and revealed that Moore did not delete the video after she had asked him to do so in private. Moore subsequently received backlash and later explained in a video that he had posted the video because it reminded him of his upcoming song, and was not trying to insinuate that they were in a relationship.
